The EarthQuaker Devices Time Shadows II is designed for guitarists looking to push the boundaries of delay effects with unique, space-time warping capabilities. Its key benefit is offering three distinct delay modes, co-developed with Death By Audio, that range from pitch-morphed fuzz and digital distortion to shimmering multi-delays. A potential caveat is its complex nature, which may require experimentation to fully master.

You can switch between modes by pressing the secondary footswitch (the one not labeled 'Bypass'). The LED indicator will change color: green for Live Mode and red for Preset Mode.
While in Live Mode, set your desired controls. Then, press and hold the secondary footswitch (Preset/Mode switch) until the LED blinks red twice. This indicates the current settings have been saved to the active preset slot.
The Time Shadows II can store up to six user-created presets.
The 'Span' control affects the range or spread of the delay effect. In some modes, it can influence the feedback or the complexity of the repeats, while in others it might alter the overall decay or density of the sound.
Yes, the Time Shadows II is compatible with bass guitar, offering unique tonal possibilities. However, be mindful of extreme low-end frequencies in certain modes, which might require EQ adjustments.
A standard 9V DC center-negative power supply with a current draw of at least 100mA is required. Please ensure your power supply meets these specifications to avoid damaging the pedal.
No, the 'Filter' control's behavior is mode-dependent. In the EarthQuaker Devices mode, it acts as a resonant envelope-controlled low-pass filter. In the Death By Audio mode, it shapes the character of the multi-delay repeats. Its function adapts to the specific sonic characteristics of each mode.
Ensure the power supply is correctly connected and providing sufficient voltage (9V DC). Check that all audio cables are securely plugged into the correct input and output jacks.
Verify the pedal is engaged by checking the footswitch LED. Ensure the Time, Span, and Filter controls are set to audible levels. Try switching between Live Mode and Preset Mode to see if the issue persists in both.
Ensure you are following the correct procedure for saving presets as outlined in the full manual. Check that the pedal is in Live Mode when attempting to save. If recalling fails, try saving the desired setting to that preset slot again.
Confirm the expression pedal is compatible and correctly wired (typically TRS). Ensure it is plugged into the EXP jack. Test the expression pedal on another device if possible. If assigned to a parameter, verify the parameter's range allows for expression control.
Check your power supply for noise or instability. Ensure all audio cables are of good quality and properly shielded. Experiment with the Time, Span, and Filter settings, as some extreme settings in certain modes can produce intentional, but potentially overwhelming, sonic artifacts.
